They say you can climb the highest mountain if you’re not alone. Just take a look at Greg Glassman, the CEO of CrossFit. Even after he lost half of the fitness company in divorce with his second wife/business partner Lauren Jenai, he single-handedly rebuilt CrossFit, with some motivation from his third wife Maggie Robinson.
So, who’s Greg’s third wife Maggie? Get to know her age and job as this article proceeds.
Meet Maggie Robinson, CrossFit’s Greg Glassman Wife
Maggie Robinson first met Greg Glassman back in 2013. At the time, she was working as a waitress at a restaurant the CrossFit owner frequented in San Diego. And soon they fell in love. Well, at least this is the version of the story Greg prefers to tell.
But in reality, it was Dale Saran, Greg’s head of legal who first asked Maggie out on a date. Unfortunately, he fell asleep in the Jacuzzi and someone had to take her home. That certain “someone” was Greg.
Given, Greg had just come out of a marriage, and Maggie, a struggling waitress, we can picture how they could have connected thereafter.
In case you don’t know, Greg was married to Lauren Jenai until 2013. Although the two filed for divorce in the year 2009, the hassle of diving their business CrossFit into two haves was never-ending. In fact, it was only finalized after Lauren gave up half of her business.
Reportedly, Lauren received $16.2 million. But the 4-year divorce struggle she spent, raising 4 children on her own, led her into such a negative spiral that she ended up in depression.
Now, CrossFit’s much better valued than it was in 2009 when the separation of assets took place. Reportedly, Greg obtained the financing he needed in the form of loans from other companies with which he had a close relationship to meet the $16.2 million that belonged to his ex-wife.
Likewise, Lauren’s also in a much better place now. Today, she’s the owner of Manifest, a company to help those who are not elite athletes become healthier. However, her love life is still a mess.
The last we checked, she was in a “complicated” relationship with her soon-to-be second husband Franklin Tyrone Tucker. Ironically, she still had to pay $75,000 bail money for Franklin — which was initially $2 million! They were expected to divorce after Franklin’s case gets resolved.
As for Greg’s first marriage, it was with Brande Jones, his childhood neighbor.

As for her alleged siblings, she has three brothers named Seth D Robinson, Nolan A Robinson, and Haley A Robinson. They were 41, 33, and 36 years of age respectively in 2022.
Maggie Robinson Job
Maggie Robinson used to be a waitress. But after meeting Greg, she left her job and started helping her husband out with CrossFit.
Her husband, Greg started CrossFit when he was 16. At the time, Glassman wasn’t satisfied with how gymnasts strengthened their bodies. So, with functional movements in mind, he combined gymnastics with other techniques to develop almost the entire CrossFit program in his garage.
Later, he even dropped out of college to officially start CrossFit Inc in 2000 in Santa Cruz, California. Now, from its first affiliate gym based in Seattle in 2005, the brand has grown to over 13,000 gyms all over the world.
However, this doesn’t mean CrossFit’s the top gym. It has had its fair share of controversies, especially because of some unorthodox social media management. Recently, Greg himself faced backlash after insensitive tweets about George Floyd.
When Maggie was not working, she liked to go outdoors and travel. Also, when she was younger she often spent her pastime playing basketball. In fact, she even competed in Crossfit games.
Fun Fact: Greg got kicked out of a handful of gyms for being disruptive before landing his own space in 2001. And it was only after he began posting workouts online, and they went viral, people paid him attention.
